Print Resources

Over the past twenty years, many wonderful primary-source-focused classroom readers and teacher lesson guides have been published. These resources are concise and convenient aids for classroom teachers. As a service to teachers in our community, we have begun a Teacher Reference Shelfproject. We are in the process of compiling a collection of reference materials that teachers may come in and use. Below is a list of our first collected titles.

Becker, Susan D. and William Bruce Wheeler. Discovering the American Past: A Look at the Evidence. Concise Edition. Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company. 2000.

"The program introduces students to primary sources in a way that they have not yet encountered. The hands-on opportunities are excellent and seeing signatures of famous people brings history up close and personal. It takes studying history out of the textbook and makes it real."

-Deborah Hoeflinger, BulterHigh School

"The [MAT] students enjoyed learning about the various approaches to using primary sources in the classroom...Meeting teachers who had used the resources was helpful."- Professor Linda Swerdlow, Director of the Drew University MAT Program
